The Budapest Ashkenazium

 


The Ashkenazium is a college in Budapest centred on the history, customs, etc. of the Ashkenazi tribe in Central Europa. Interesting. I'd never imagined such a thing. Till last year I was convinced that no Jews remained in Hungary. I was wrong, maybe not completely.  

Picking Up Dollars Lying on Wall Street

Israeli Hi-Tech industry is very successful and dollars are flowing into the Treasury. So much that the sheqel is strengthening non-stop and this morning jumped to 3.1 sh/$.  Israeli tech companies have raised $20.8 billion in the first ten months of 2021, more than double the $10 billion in 2020. When I arrived here even eggs were rationed, and worried about "economic independence".

Ella

 

Ella is my 2 y.o. granddaughter. Yesterday we took her to the playground. She started collecting leaves and bringing them to me. She is very attentive to the environment and understands all but is not speaking yet. Hod Hasharon was full of young witches going to Halloween parties.

Lili

 

Two weeks ago I discovered Twitter, and Lili, a 24 y.o. twitterist with 3000 followers. The fat raccoon above is NOT Lili, but her banner, how she sees herself. Obviously, this is a girl with self-image and self-worth issues. She also posted a passport pic and a full body pic in the mirror. She is a perfectly nice clear-eyed Tel Aviv girl. She twits a lot. A lot! The obvious question is why and the obvious answer is to attract attention and get asked out by a suitable boy. She wrote: "To be a good girl from a good family does not bring boys to the yard". In the original: חצר that also means court or playground. She revealed that she already comes with "neduniya" (dowry) without saying that: "My grandmother gave me a present דורון apartment, but I would like to return it so the boys will want me for a present and not me for the present" (free translation of her high Hebrew. She is very intelligent.). 

A boy commented something. Lili: "You are dying for me". The boy: "I like you only on twitter because here I can have you in small portions". Lili is taking Biology and "Gender studies" at Gilman Bldg. of Tel Aviv University. Her parents came to visit her from the exclusive Artists' Village where they live. Lili introduced a friend. The friend: How do you do?  Father: "Are these gender studies also rotting your brain?" 

She mentions her family, of the Old German Jewish elite. The grand-uncle founded the Technion, aunt Trude is a known painter. A friendly girl warned her to hide these details because boys are easily intimidated.

A gentleman should never read the intimate diary of a young girl, but isn't it fascinating? I never paid two seconds of attention to the sentiments of anybody, less than all of the crying girls. Goodness gracious! I am growing sentimental (=senile)! 

P.D.: There is no anonymity on the internet. I found out - easily - her name and the name of his father, who is a professional copywriter. Lili's only problem is that she is taller than average Israeli boys. I understand it is a big problem for her. With this, hereby I am stopping reading her and her friends' chitchat. 

P.D.: 12-11-21 She writes    EDSחחחחח אני אנמית ויש לי RainbowSmiling face with tear
That explains all. She is anemic and has EDS. That is why she complains of being too tall. No fun at all. I'll stop here.

Inclusive excellence at Harvard

 

The healthy fat-ass chocolate-skinned lady with good teeth is the person charged with bringing inclusive excellence (*) to Harvard University. Interviewed about what she had accomplished in her first 14 months, she talked about ... nothing. Oh yes, she recorded 500 hours of hearing Black students' complaints. About one hour per day. I wonder for how long Harvard will maintain this blatant fakery. The people in Harvard are extreme leftists, very much for equity, but not that stupid. On the other hand, she must have saved the faculty five hundred hours of having to deal with Black students' emotional accusations of ancestral racism and oppression, and loud emotional crying. Her contribution to Harvard is worth any salary she may be drawing. Priceless. My personal memories about Negresses are their strong muscles and vivid purple vulva. I worked a year in Nigeria. 

(*) "Inclusive excellence is a framework that embraces inclusivity and equity as foundational to the true excellence espoused in Harvard’s mission ".

Embraces what? Espouses what? Meaning what?

Buying ICL




Potash: The $600 current price is above the $580 average for 2013.  Yes but discounting inflation?
 a dollar today is worth only 84% of a dollar in 2012.  And 2012-3 were years of Mr Doyle's magic monopoly. Anyway, price is increasing more than inflation, I shall keep hoarding ICL stock.

Sweets Factory

 

Working on a sweets factory. The cooking equipment will stand in the middle. The room will be full of chocolate and whipped egg albumina, that is why it needs so many drains. Yesterday I bought the competing product of Unilever, and found that it is 51% sugar. Children love it.
